SPECIAL MISSION ENVELOPE: As believers, we are called to actively spread God’s words and love to make a positive difference in the world, whether it be to our neighbors, or strangers from another country. Not everyone can “go” to serve, but most of us can help others to “go” by offering a financial gift. Funds from this mission envelope will be used to support the mission trip to Haiti, and to start a fund for a future trip to Sierra Leone. This special collection will take place TODAY! NEIGHBORHOOD
FUN
NIGHT
IS
GOING
ON
THE
ROAD!
For the past 10 years Salem has hosted Neighborhood Fun night in the church parking lot. This year we are taking it on the road to National Night Out at Roof Park on Tuesday, August 1st. National Night Out is a national outreach to the community offered by the local police. There were 2000 attendees last year! This is a wonderful opportunity for Salem to move closer to one of our specific goals, blurring the lines between community and church. Please be in prayer for us we take it on the road to show our community how much Jesus loves them and how much we love them.
